Between Exhibition and Discourse
The event is designed as an open conversation aimed at interested individuals who wish to not only view contemporary art but also experience it through direct exchange. The focus is on the origins and effects of algorithms, their influence on daily life, and their role in current warfare. STRWÜÜ works with visual foundations from satellite images and infographics concerning 14 crisis areas of the year 2025.

The Venue with Historical Depth
Burgplatz is among the most significant cultural-historical ensembles in Braunschweig. The ambiance between the cathedral, Dankwarderode Castle, and historical facades creates a special tension for the evening. Here, artistic research meets a backdrop that tells its own history.

Organization, Expertise, and Artistic Background
The format is organized within the framework of HBK Braunschweig, the only state art university in Lower Saxony that closely links art, design, and science. STRWÜÜ presents the topic in a concise form and opens the space for discussion, contextualization, and audience sentiment on equal terms. ([hbk-bs.de](https://www.hbk-bs.de/))
